Message to my body... I'm sorry! To My Body....
Okay, yes, I knew better, but the temptation of 20 hours of overtime was too much! As it is, we have no money and weren't able to pay any bills or get groceries this month....
I realize that sleep is very important, and I realize that agreeing to work 6 consecutive 12 hour shifts is really hard. And yeah, I know how upsetting it was when management said (the day before the OT would have kicked in) that they didn't really need me cuz they didn't want to pay the OT... especially since I cut my attempt at a vacation short as well....
But was it really necessary to make my face break out, remind me of that annoying ovarian pain, screw up my bowels, and make me have 3 migraines over the last 5 days?
Love,
Lydia

Really, though, I didn't think my doc was being this serious when he told me to "take it easy" and "get enough sleep" and "not get too stressed with work." My face was finally clear (!!) and everything was going well. I was feeling good and exercising, and except for the money thing, I didn't have much stress. Then I had this opportunity and said yes. I ended up calling in the last day before my "vacation" because I'd had a migraine for 18 hours and it was making its final stand... you know, the few hours where you think you're going to die before it finally is killed by the meds? ... I have only have one migraine in the last 5 years, we thought I had "outgrown" them because of the preventive meds I ended up taking.
I'm sure this is all PCOS related. What else could it be? Either way it has kicked my butt and my doc still hasn't called back to confirm my rx for imitrex. Argh! |
